Now that you’ve decided HOW you’re going to create/keep your Story Bible, it’s time to start filling it.

NaNo Prep Assignment for Tuesday, October 9, 2013:

Today, your assignment is to have some fun!

If you haven’t already done so, it’s time to put the full description of each of your main (POV) characters into your story bible. If you do already have some of this, go back and make sure you have all of it—and see if there are ways in which you can make your characters’ looks more unique.

Create a page/folder/section for each one so that the info isn’t running together and so that they’re easier to find.

This is great! Have you used the OneNote app? Just wondering how they sync up. I normally use Evernote on the go, then transfer over to Word, but I like what you have here of OneNote. Haven’t jumped on Scrivener yet, but I have several friends who adore it, so I might give the a whirl at some point.

I tried the OneNote app on my phone, but wasn’t happy with the fact that I couldn’t open my existing ON notebook for my story-in-progress which was saved in my Dropbox. The ON app (at least on Droid phones) forces you to use Microsoft’s cloud storage, and I didn’t want to have to move all of my files over there.

The ON app also didn’t seem to have a lot of features that are the reason I choose to use ON on my computer. Of course, I don’t use my phone for writing related stuff very much at all (maybe to make a note or snap a picture here or there), so I’m almost always at a computer where I have access to the full version of ON and my Dropbox files.
